DESCRIPTION

EXPLORE, ENJOY, LEARN! 

Head into arctic nature and discover the beautiful wilderness of Lapland with this complete educational tour. The hike is adapted to the level of the group with different difficulty options, and to the highlights of the season. Even without snow, Lapland is worth discovering!
 
We offer two different hike options:
a half-day tour : a gentle hike in a great nature area in the Rovaniemi region, with a great viewpoint. The hike is usually around 4-5km and the tour lasts 3h30-4h.
an all-day tour : a longer hike in Rovaniemi area (10-15km) or a gentle hike in another region of Lapland to discover other nature features. In this case, the hike can be 5-8km into a canyon or up to the top of lappish fells (“local mountains”).

In both cases, the experience is designed to explore some elusive nature area or reach some viewpoints over the immense subarctic forests. Along the way, your outdoor guide will explain to you about your surroundings, the fauna and flora, footprints in the early snow or in the mud, how to use trees or mushrooms, identify the berries to eat, and some other
basics of how to survive in such difficult conditions.
 
A break with an open fire will also allow you to grill a typical Finnish snack with hot beverages. This is a great opportunity for your guide to show you how to build a fire in arcitc conditions and answer all your questions about Lapland.
 
This tour is operated in small groups only in order to allow a proper connexion with nature.
 
We  organise this excursion from Spring to Autumn so you can experience Arctic nature even without snow. In Wintertime, we recommend the following hiking alternatives to fully enjoy the special snowy landscapes of Lapland at their best :
– 
Hike in Korouoma Canyon to see the frozen waterfalls ;
– A 
snowshoe hike or a ski trek  adventure to get off the beaten tracks!
